This week in MMO crowdfunding news, Star Citizen published a massive studio report, complete with a brand-new video on EVA transitions for first-person combat.
Meanwhile, Sacrament posted about its Druid class and roleplaying system, Shroud of the Avatar showed off the Halls of Artifice and Valhold in its latest newsletter, and The Repopulation spinoff Fragmented announced an April arrival on Steam’s early access.
LUX joins our list this week with a new Kickstarter to fund the development of a survival sandbox MMORPG reminiscent of Don’t Starve.
Read on for more on what’s up with MMO crowdfunding this week and the roundup of all the crowdfunded MMOs we’ve got our eye on!
